Hope you are aware that the registrars under COM/NET /ORG are allowed to have different policies as well. Check out e.g. NSI's that from register.com and the one from Namesecure at http://www.namesecure.com/services/dispute_policy.cfm. You will find many differences. I'm not against harmonization but you may also be aware the most commonly used policy, the one from NSI, is considered a debacle, at least with respect to marks. Would it help if anybody would adopt something that is considered a flop ? > I'm not sure whether this deviation from common ground is obvious > to the TLDs themselves, as they normally only deal with their > own TLD 8-) We know quite well what's happening outside our territory, don't be afraid ;-). > -- > MfG/Best regards, Kurt Jaeger 21 years to go ! > LF.net GmbH pi at LF.net Oberon.net GmbH pi at oberon.net > Vor dem Lauch 23 fon +49 711 90074-23 Friedrich-Ebert-Str.1 > D-70567 Stuttgart fax +49 711 7289041 40210 Duesseldorf fon +49 211 179253-11 > For Redmond: "nuke the site from orbit -- it's the only way to be sure."
